Crambe Cordifolia

Reviewed 4th August 2018 by farideh Fraser

Bought 3 plants 2018. However i know from experience that When it decides to oblige then it is fabulous and breath taking indeed. However, this year out of 3 planted only 2 are growing and so late in season still no sign of flowers. Snails seemed to have had a field day too on the leaves.I think this year the weather has been very unkind. I Plan to dig the 2 out and protect in green house and replant next year with the hope that it will be as it should .......magnificent

Crambe cordifolia second year

Reviewed 14th June 2018 by Fenella Rouse

Planted 3 of these last year (2017) and they produced good leaves. Two survived the hard winter. Spring was late this year but although they look well there are no signs of any flowers and it is mid-June 2018. Any thoughts?
